Quick Hitter: This is Your Permission to be Successful - E198
Highlights from this episode:
Quick Hitter: This is Your Permission to be Successful (00:49)
Closing Thought: Process Evaluation (22:11)
"Action will delineate and define you". There is no reason you can't you do the amazing things that others are doing. Give yourself permission to go and do it. Those other people are no better than you. Of course imposter syndrome can be a challenge, but it's only as real as you allow it to be. Start asking "why not you?" and you will be blown away at the things you can accomplish... because why not?

Closing Thought: 3 Questions You Need to Answer at the End of the Week (14:46)
In this week's episode we are talking about the mental state it takes to do big things. It takes passion for what you are doing and a love of the hunt. This relates back to previous episodes where I talk about needing to be doing it for the journey, not the destination. Don't look back 10 years from now and wish you took bigger swings.

Highlights from this episode:
Quick Hitter: Can you answer this question for your practice? (00:36)
Closing Thought: Behind the mountatins are more mountains (12:23)
In this week's episode we are answering a game changing question: What if it could be easy? We glorify the grind and running ourselves into the ground for things.... but what if what we aspire to doesn't actually require that? What if there's a way to do things smarter, not harder. Let's not overcomplicate things for the sake of "selling out for the goal". If we change our perspective to finding the simple way to solve a problem, we will have leveled up!

Closing Thought: The Journey is the Reward (11:49)
In this episode we are talking about two annoyingly simple things that contribute to success. One involves my wife and a water bottle of all things and the other is admitting that these questions we wrestle with are not rocket science. Often the simplest answer is the right one.

Highlights from this episode:
Office Talk: Staffing, Staffing, & Expansion (00:36)
Closing Thought: Oreos vs. Statins (14:09)
In this week's office talk, we are talking about staffing but in a different context. In this situation we had a team member who was a great producer but wasn't meshing with the rest of the team. Because of this we were constantly trying to find ways to improve culture and get her connected. It came to the point where it was no longer working and we parted ways.The changes that have come about since then have been amazing!

Quick Hitter: 3 Reasons My Practice Grew 25% Last Year - E187
Highlights from this episode:
Quick Hitter: 3 Reasons my practice grew 25% last year (00:28)
Closing Thought: 5 Year Perspective on Current Beliefs (14:49)
In this week's quick hitter, we are taking a look back at 2023. It was our best yet with 25% growth over the previous year. I've been asked if that was a fluke and if it was sustainable going forward and my answer is... it was 100% intentional and we plan on continued growth especially in our new location! There are 3 big reasons I can attribute this success to. They may seem simple but doing them for an entire year (or more if you want to keep growing) is where people drop away. So much of what we do is consistency. Showing up every day and consistently spreading the same message will get you far, my friends!

Office Talk: My Honest Thoughts as I Navigate Growth - E186
Highlights from this episode:
Office Talk: My honest thoughts as I navigate growth (00:59)
Closing Thought: Chasing pleasure vs. having a Purpose (13:15)
In this week's office talk we are getting raw and unfiltered with my thoughts on the practice expansion. It's not always sunshine and rainbows. Visualizing the practice I want is awesome but when the bills start arriving, things get a lot more real and a different kind of pressure is applied. This nervous excitement is completely normal and in the next 5 years if I find myself doing this again with another office, I expect to feel the same. Growth is messy but, trust me, it's worth it!

Quick Hitter: Are You Setting Goals the Wrong Way? - E185
Highlights from this episode:
Quick Hitter: Are Goals as Important as They Say? (00:35)
Closing Thought: What your respiration rate says about you (12:52)
In this week's Quick Hitter, we are talking about what makes a practice successful. Is it goals... or is it maybe something else? My hot take is that it's NOT our goals. It's consistency and mastering the art of longevity, all of which come back to your big picture "Why". Whatever your "why" is for doing what you're doing is what is going to actually keep you motivated and moving forward through all the struggles that are going to come your way.
These somewhat arbitrary goals we set for ourselves probably have very little to do with what we actually want out of life and more to do with something we heard at a conference or a podcast that sounded like something we SHOULD be doing.
Figure out your "why" for your life and work backward from there my friends!Leave a comment or shoot me an email about something you've been struggling with and then your "why" or reason for pushing through and continuing to show up.

Closing Thought: Could you fly the plane? (12:48)
In this week's episode we are moving ahead on preparing for the new office with a trip to Eye Designs in Pennsylvania! It's incredible to see how the new optical and exam rooms are going to look in greater and greater detail. It's not cheap but it's worth every penny for the experience and feel it's going to give our patients! The next piece of the puzzle is changing the entire setup of our schedule to how we want to have it when we add our next doctor... because why wait? Let's do what we want now!
